02Scheme fit
Ideal system
Cover-3 match scheme that prioritizes a deep safety who can patrol the middle of the field and deter vertical threats.
Free SafetyTwo-high SafetyDeep middleNickel package S
Best role
Year 1 could be as a rotational deep safety and special teams ace, eventually developing into an every-down free safety who can anchor the back end.
Wrong fit
A purely box safety role, or one that demands frequent man coverage responsibilities against slot receivers or tight ends.
Martin’s athletic profile and range make him an excellent fit for schemes that value a true deep safety, allowing him to play to his strengths against vertical passing games.
